My love affair with New England started as a child. I was born and raised in Connecticut and spent a great deal of my time exploring the forested areas. I played in the woods whenever possible, walked in the reservoirs, and took drives in the hills with my father. I loved each and every season and always tried to find a way to be outdoors.
I watched clouds. I looked for reflections on the surface of water and loved to smell the air as the snow gathered grey in the sky.
As I got older, I found myself riding my bike farther and farther into the hills, discovering towns I never knew existed outside of Connecticut. I went to summer camps for cyclists and toured throughout the region. New England was indelibly engraved in almost all I did, and I returned to teach.
In 1990, I decided to take a year's leave of absence from my job and work for a year in Israel. There I met my wife Eva and ended up, for the past 24 years, teaching at that very wonderful school.
